We started our evening in the Huntington Room.

The Westin put together an amazing spread. Salmon eggs with passion fruit juice below.

Melon and mint soup/cocktail. Refreshing.

Jeri created some beautiful floral centerpieces. I love the wheat grass at the base of these gerbera daisies.

I had never been in the Huntington Room and it was a great space for this type of cocktail party. Of course, Dave and I loved the natural light from all of the windows (to the right).

Teal from Art of the Event enjoying herself.

Whit Wales captured the video for the event. So we had to capture Whit’s signature bowtie.

Abby of Boston Park Plaza Hotel and Peaches by Plums fame. You may recall that Abby did the flowers for one of our opening celebrations. She is amazingly talented.

Naomi from Generations Cinemastories chats with Ashley of the Fairmont Battery Wharf.

Teresa, left, with her partner in crime, created the amazing floral designs from Lisa and Scott’s wedding (read the floral story). It was great to catch up with the Mimosa team again.

As members, we also have the opportunity to sponsor an event. Dave and I did so for the June event at the Westin in Copley Place. This was a great opportunity to capture what a NACE event is like. And this particular month was focused on green initiatives. A matter near and dear to my heart. So I share with you a few of my favorite images from meeting portion of the event….

Lyndsay from the Fairmont Copley Plaza makes introductions.

We hear a bit from the engineering team of the Westin. They have won all kinds of awards for their green practices.

And then Gayle from Art of the Event shares about green trends in event planning.

When the program is over, we are treated to an absolutely phenomenal chocolate dessert bar. Let’s just say I had more than one.
